    "abstract": "Events unfold over time, i.e., they have a beginning and\nendpoint. Previous studies have illustrated the importance of\nendpoints for event perception and memory (Lakusta &\nLandau, 2005, 2012; Papafragou, 2010; Strickland & Keil,\n2011; Zacks & Swallow, 2007). However, this work has not\ncompared endpoints to other potentially salient points in the\ninternal temporal profile of events (e.g., midpoints) and has\nonly discussed events with a self-evident endpoint. In the\npresent study, we explored sensitivity to event endpoints and\nmidpoints in events of different types. Our results show that\npeople are more disturbed by interruptions at the end\ncompared to interruptions in the middle of an event – but\nonly when perceiving a bounded event (i.e., an event with an\ninherent endpoint). This finding reveals complex tracking of\nthe abstract internal temporal structure of events during\nevent perception.",
